      I'm enrolled as of right ********** been having problems getting my Pell grants as well. They supposed to let me know whenever a payment is posted but I get absolutely "nothing". I've messaged the financial aid advisor, but he doesn't message back, now I'm checking out the ************* noticing that they've had issues & several complaints before I even enrolled. I'm checking with my lawyer ******* might be joining this lawsuit. It's a shame that we have people like these to deal with. I wish I had of checked them out beforehand, but I was caught off guard. I usually look up the reviews. I'm owed monies as of right ******* can't get any assistance. They think that they're getting away with being greedy & taking our money & pocketing it, but GOD sees all, knows all & they will repay!!

      I have enjoyed my time at CTU. I previously attended the University of ********** and Colorado State University. I just completed a Bachelor of Science degree in business administration and digital marketing. Having spent a lot of my career in marketing, I am pleased to say CTU has given me the tools to update my education. I highly recommend it for the working professional.

      Went online just to get information about a program. Inputting information, I knew that I would get called from CTU. What I wasn't expecting was to be called about 3+ times per day and daily. I've blocked numbers so I wouldn't have my phone going off at work. No messages are ever left. I would just like the calls to stop. This is getting to be harassment on the schools part.

      The professors at this university is the problem they belittle you and insult your intelligence. They want you to dumb down your work to fit their parameters of similarities and then dont take any accountability. It is not professors teaching you or grading your work it is all a computer system they have professors in place to be the face of the class but after 3 years here it is evident the professors do not do a single act of actual grading their students work. They run it through a system let it give a score and thats it. With a system that will say using words like physician and robust is too similar to other works and is therefore plagiarism so lets give you a zero for a grade . DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME MONEY AND ENERGY.

      The classes and professors were great. My student success coach not so much. I never get full answers from her and if i question what she says she stops responding. I graduate in August after a long and hard two years of working full time and being a collage student. I messaged my student success coach ***** asking when we will know dates about graduation. I have family wanting to come from out of state and I myself would have to request off work. I was told they have a virtual graduation and if I wanted to attend in person graduation I would have to wait until July of ****. So CTU expects you to work you **** off for two or four years straight only to wait an additional year just to be celebrated for your accomplishments. You would think if you're paying 32 thousand dollars for an associates degree that it would include an actual graduation the year you graduated. I was going to come back to finish my Batchelors with them but after this I think I'll be taking my education experience somewhere else. Absolutely disappointing and, not worth the time for absolutely zero reward and huge load of debt.

      I am a student now at CTU, and I just found out that all they want is our student loan money. I have used up pell ***** funds, so they put me on a payment plan so I can finish my degree, I checked my account yesterday and found out that when my loans came in I had $300 left over that they didn't send me. I called fianial aid and was told after 15 minutes on hold that even though my loans were enough to pay for my class they were keeping the money in case I run short. I have never heard of that before now. If that was the case why do they give the stipends? But now they decided to keep my stipend in case I need it later. I am looking for another school as we speak, I am taking my credits and go to a school that doesn't steal from their students.

      I enrolled back in 2007. Everything was going great but then I got pregnant with a high risk pregnancy. So I took a leave of absence. When I came back from my leave of absence they no longer offered medical billing and coding. I only had a few classes left before I got my associates. They didn't tell me the class was ending or that I was going to have to pay to take a new course and that none of my previous credits could go towards the new course they put me in which was ********************** I didn't want ********************* but here I am $70,000 in debt and no degree to show for it.

      I wish I could leave a 0 star rating. The school owes me $5128 in grant ***** and refuses to pay it out. After reading more of their reviews this is happening to even more students. This school need to be shut down

      So glad I got out while I had the chance. Please do not waste your time, their advisors are straight up sales people and they seem to care more about you enrolling just long enough to make you pay something. They are incredibly pushy and will not respect your boundaries, I had stated my work schedule and that while I am at work I have limited access to my phone and they still called me. When we did have set an appointment to talk, my advisor was often late. I have a very tight schedule, Im a mom and a wife and I have so much on my plate and I know that it is hard to get a hold of me but at the same time, I expected not to be called 3 times a day at work. I so badly wanted this to be it because intellepath is such a cool feature to have but none of this is worth it. Avoid for-profit institutions and instead invest in your local community college which ended up being cheaper for me long-term.
